I get a Camera Error message for no apparent reason. It appears on either lens at random times. I bought the camera new in September, and it worked fine until about a month ago. Sometimes I turn the camera off for awhile and then when i restart i get a couple of exposures then it reverts to the camera error thing.

Hi, I have the Sony Cyber Shot DSC-W130 digital camera - whilst away on holiday a message appears when I turn on the camera "turn power off and on again". I have done so many times but it still comes up with the same message - hence not allowing me to take any pictures.

Just tried to hook up my camera to my computer and the computer is not recognizing the camera for some reason. Is it possible that the USB cable is bad. I am not getting an error message and we have done this many times without the software installed. We installed the software that comes with it and it wn't allow us to do it either. We just downloaded norton antivirus 2009 to our computer and this is the first time we have tried since doing that. I think the USB cable is bad but it's pretty new.

Can't upload pics from easyshare m340 to easyshare software. Camera is 3 months old. I have downloaded pictures once before but for some reason I can't seem to get it to work this time. I hear a sound when I plug in the camera to the computer, but nothing happens. I don't see an error message anywhere. I've only uploaded pictures one time before and I seem to remember it starting on its own once it was plugged in.

I am having problems with my USB connection between my camera, a Fuji FinePix E550 & my laptop.

After turning on the camera, the lens goes in and out about 3 times, then a message appears: "Turn the power off and on again". I do that and still get the same message.

I have a Nikon S6 digital camera, everything about the camera seems to work fine, except for this "lens error" message I keep getting. Sometimes I'll turn it on, and I can use it just fine.

I usually give up and try again later. Sometimes it'll still give that error message, and other times, it will just work like normal.
